![]() This isn’t merely an adventure novel about nobleman-spy-thief-faie Seregil of Rhiminee and his protege Alec of Kerry. ![]() There are some minor flaws that I think an editor should have smoothed over, such as clunky shifts in point of view, but for the most part, I didn’t care. Granted, Luck in the Shadows is not as sophisticated as either, but Flewelling progresses wonderfully through her next Nightrunner novels, in both her world-building and in the passionate portrayals of her characters. It’s not easy for me to find fantasy series that have the emotional depth of a Robin Hobb trilogy or the intrigue and suspense of the Game of Thrones epic. I’m just starting #5, and also starting to dread having to wait for book #7. I’ve spent the last two weeks gulping down these books in a delirious frenzy. The sixth and most recent book, Casket of Souls, came out in 2012. Luck in the Shadows was published waaaay back in ye olde 1996, the first volume in the Nightrunner series. ![]() Part of the Worlds Without End Women of Genre Fiction Reading Challenge ![]()
